Off the line, the SQ7 SUV hits 100 km/h in 4.04 s versus 8.32 s for the V 300 d 4MATIC. At this point, the SQ7 SUV leads by 4.28 s and sits roughly 19 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the SQ7 SUV is doing 154 km/h against 114 km/h for the V 300 d 4MATIC. The gap is 2.37 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the SQ7 SUV crosses the line in 12.11 s versus 16.03 s. The 3.92 s gap represents roughly 142 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the SQ7 SUV continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 214 km/h versus 156 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the SQ7 SUV finishes in 21.94 s versus 29.55 s, with a 7.61 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the SQ7 SUV is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the V 300 d 4MATIC at 217 km/h. This isn’t a physical engine limit - it’s a manufacturer choice, usually for tyre safety or homologation reasons. Neither car reaches its true aerodynamic top speed.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (4.34 kg/hp vs 9.44 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Unknown).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 14.08 seconds. The 4.28 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, SQ7 SUV wins (4,04 s vs 8,32 s).
SQ7 SUV goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,04 seconds (calibrated simulation).
